You’ll see the movie classic come to life right before your eyes.

Don’t miss your chance to meet our official Wizard of Oz characters: Dorothy and Toto, and of course the Scarecrow, but wait, we can’t forget the Wicked Witch of the West! She’ll be cackling there too. It is a Fall Festival after all. You never know what friends you may meet along the Yellow Brick Road.
